Considerable money has lately been chang ing hands in Clinton and Middlesex town ships,: B ides the Butchers' well near Bakers town, the Gufi'ey well on the Gold farm in the S. E. corner of Middlesex twp., and the Vandergrii. & Co. well on the Tom Mont gome./ farm, in West Deer twp., Allegheny Co., which adjoius Clinton twp. in this coun ty, are, or were supposed to be, good wells, and were reported to have spouted before be ing plugged, and many of the farms lying between tbem and the Saxon field have been leased at from to SIOO an acre bonus and f-a eighth royalty. We heard ot seyeral farmers of that vicin ity getting big money down and also of one who owned three or four hundred acre-, but who couldn't read, getting badly ler.. He thought he would be safe in lea-ing one hundred acres to a firm that agreed to com plete a well in three months, so as t> devel op the balance of his fai u, but he could not read, au Ibis child who read the Co him, missed the part making the lease bind ing for a year, aud also the part lea?iog all he owned, uud also a hundred -eres that his wife had 21 interest iu, at simply an eighth royalty and no bonus.

His only theory of the origin of the fire is that he stepped upon a match while changing his clothing. The loss of his Ijonse and household goods, with no insurance, is a heavy biow to hiw- Presbyterian Church Improve ment. The seats of the Presbyterian church room of this town have been taken up and piled iu the center of the room, the carpet taken up, and scaf folding erected, up >n which the fres coera are now at work Ali the seats have been taken from the Sunday School room. A new floor will be put in this room, and the partitions between it and ..the two north-end rooms out out and replaced by sliding doors and the room will be frescoed. The pulpit also, will be changed to the South side of the room near the entrance, and the seats will tj made to face the south. These, with new chandeliers in the church room, some new windows and new carpets will constitute the improve ments, and will cost about "§ 1 fjOO. Rev. Oiler will hoid services in the Y. M. C.

This occurred shortly after one o'clock, and was fol lowed later in the afternoon by other rains, which interfered with the ball games and picnics that were on the schedule. The morning, however, was clear and fair; there were a good many people in town, and the parade wa3 a success, though tho "fantastic" part of it was not so large as usual. The evening fireworts were the best we have ever had in Butler, aud were very creditable to the youug men who took charge of that part of the celebration. The youug people crowded the Diamond and their fre quent applause showed their appreci ation of the entertainment. There is no American with soul so dead that the recurrence of The Day we Celebrate is to him a matter of in difference. Since the 4th of July, 177G, the day of the Declaration of Independ encj, the struggling thirteen colonies have growu into a large aud rich, aud therefore powerful Xation.and repub licanism from being an experiment has become a fixed fact. We believe that republicanism represents the only proper distribution of tho politi cal power, and developes the best , i|ualities of the human character, and to pry that idea out of this Xation at present, would l>e a human imposi sibility. NEIGHBORHOOD NOTES. At Kittanning last Friday, the par ties charged with procuring an abor tion had a hearing. and Forest aud his wife were discharged, but Dr. Thomas was held over for trial. This decision was a great surprise to the public, as it was fully expected all parlies concerned would bo discharged aud the matter dropped, but now the case will be carried to the next court and very likely end badly for Forest aud wife, v.a well as for l>r. Thomas. The lawyers of Kittanaing will close their ofii -es during the month of July. The value of a handsome and winning ways was exemplified by an incident at Larcumont, Westchester county, X. Y., a few day aaro Michael J. Dailey stole five hun irei dollars from his lather's truuk to de fray his wedding expenses. Tha father had him arrested, b'lt when the old man saw the b'ide he relented aud withdrew the prosecution Au East Liverpool, O , man drop ped dead on JSunday. He had been drinking continually for six weeks, and in that time had consumed 43 gallons of whisky. We may look for the usual resolutions of regret over Samuel and submission to a "myi-t}-- ious dispensation of Divine Provi dence. Maud Suuder, aged fifteen, Sirah Ilensel, aged fourteen, and Juuie Rufl'uer, tiged eleven, of Madeira, Clearfield county, were drowned in dam on the Clearfield creek near that place on Monday afternoon Xothing is positively kaowu of the drowning, but it is supposed the pirls went in bathing aod that one of them got beyond her depth and the others perished in attempting to render as sistance. While Mr. Stevens and his little five-year-old daughtsr were crossing a very high bridge over E!k run, near New Galilee, Beaver county, on Wed nesday of last week, the child became light headed and fell between the ties to the ground below, a distance of about one hundred teet. Her terror stricken father hastened off the bridge and down the embankment, expecting to find nothing but the mangled re mains of his child on the rocks below. But on picking up the child she was fouud uninjured excepting a slight bruise on her shoulder. She was in sensible for some time, but medical aid was summoned, and she was soon restored to consciousness. The first words the poor little one uttered on coming too, wass "I won't go on that bridge again." The little one fell feet fir3t, and her wonderful es cape from being dashed to pieces, is attributed to the air inflating her clothing and breaking tne force of her fall. The fall is the talk and wonder of the neighborhood. It was witness ed by several, who, horror stricken, ran to the spot, expecting to find the child crushed to death. Lightning rod men called on a prominent fanner near Stone creek, O . and put up reds for him, taking his note for $5. A few day after they left the farmer was iu Canal Dover, and was th'irc presented with a note !>y a banker for SSOO. The lightning forger had raised the not) and the farmer had it to pay. An explosion of dynamite occurred at the park, Wellsville, N. Y , last week, instantly killing Thomas Pren tice and Patrick llooney, and serious ly injurin? Henry Millback. The men were engaged in destroying old trees and stumps with dynamite cirt ridges, when op,e of the cartridges exploded prematurely. A picnic was in progress in the park at the time, and it is miraculous that none were injured, as several pleasure seekers were in close proximity when the ae cideut occurred. The stable of Jas, Peters at Lanes ville, near Freeport, was destroyed by fire last Saturday night. A cow was cremated and a lot of feed and hay burned. Mrs. Peters had SBS, which she put iu a tiucan and hid in the baru for safe keeping. The money is gone and a search for the can prov ed fruitless. The belief is that some thief stole the money and then set fire to the stable. Millions of worms are eating up the leaves of the phestnqt trees ou Neversink Mouutaiu, overlooking Beading. The Fioyd House at Su-gertowu, near the famous Eureka mineral springs, was destroyed by fire last Friday night. There were 40 guests in the house. All escaped unhurt. The furniture 1. longing to the house was saved, as was also the baggage belonging to the guests. A very singular accident, resulting in loss of life, occurred near Williamsport, lately. Mrs Eva Harsch, aged 62 years, got up at 4 o'clock and went out to the barn to catch some chick ens. In order to secure the fowls she had to go into the loft. She climbed up on a box, and peered through a crevice in the tfoor. While in this position the box overturned, leaving the woman suspended by the n?ck. Alter hanging two hours the body was discovered by the husband, but all efforts at resuscitation proved fruitless. Election of School Teachers. At the meeting of the School Board of Butler last Tae?day evening, twen ty-six teachers for next f jrm were elected as follows. Principal of Jefferson St School— Miss Brittain.

The salary of each teacher was not determined, but we understand that, the new teachers are rated at s'»o per month, for the first year, $5 per month to be added for each year of service, no salary to exceed SSO per month. During the coming winter there are to be two schools iu Spring dale, and the B jard is considering the ad visibility of having one primary school fa the West End or Duffyville. No 10 of the Jeiforson St. building is to be taught by .Mr. Anderson as a High or Normal School, with Miss Snyder as Assistant. —Everybody will find it to their advantage to go to the City Bakery lor their broud, pies, cakes, etc. WHERE HEROES SLEEP. Opposing Armies of 1863 Meet and Clasp Hands as Friends. GYTTYSBLRU, PA , July 2.—The day has been filled with tb«. dedica tion of monument*, tbe meetings ot corps societies, the meetings of old comrades, long' separated by years and distance, and the informal as well as the formal reunions of the Blue aud the Gray. The Confeder ates have been moving on the town in greater numbers than yesterday. Governor Gordon, of Georgia, and Governor Fitzhugh L"e, of Virginia, arrived to day. Mrs. Pickett was ex peeled, but Bent a telegram of regrets. The Robert E Lee Camp, of Rich mond, 150 strong, aud over 100 Unit ed Veteraus ironi Richmond, also ar rived this evening, together with a detachment of vet'runs from At lanta At 8 o'clock Sickles' Excelsior Brig ade, composed of the Seventieth, Seventy-first, Seventy-second, Sev enty-third and Seventy-fourth New York Regiments, met aud held dedi catox-y exercises over the foundation of the brigade monument. Themon ument is unfinished aud only the foundation is ready. The Rev. C. 11. Buckley, of Howard University, of Washington, I>. C., chaplain ol the First Regiment, op.'ded the exer cises with prayer aud read an origin al poem, called "Excelsior." Rev. G 11. Twitchell, of Hartford, deliv ered the oration. The monument when completed will consist of a Doric temple, with a statue of Gener al Sickles. Later, the Irish Brigade, composed of the Sixty-third, Sixty-ninth, and Eigtieth New York Infantry, heard requiem mass at St. Francis Xavier's church, and afterwards dedicated their monument in the wheat field. This is the brigade that was blessed and absolved by Father Corby just before going into battle on this field. Orations were delivered by several of the brigade and two poem 3 were read. At 3:30 this afurnoon Bishop 31. ►A. DeWolfe, of the Centra! Pennsyl vania diocese of the Episcopal Church, laid the corner stone for the memorial chapel of Gettysburg, to he known as the "Church of the Prince of Peace." It will contain in its walls several memorial tablets, quite a number having been donated within the past few years. The site is at the corner of Baltimore and High streets, and is very conspicu ous. Hon. Wra. McLean, presiding Judge of this judicial district, deliv ered an historical oratiou, tha Dean of the Harrisburg Convocation, and General W. S. Crawford,of the Unitad States Army, participating in the ex ercises. Among the monuments ded icated this morning were the Seven ty -eigth and One Hundred and Sec ond jointly; Battery B. First Light Artillery; Sixty-second, Sixty fourth, Sixty-seventh, Third Inde pendent Battery, One Hundred and Forty-ninth, Fifteenth Independent Battery, One Hundred and Tenth, Fortieth, One Huudred and Filth, Forty-fifth and Fifty-third. The great event or this secoud day's anniversary did not hapen un til lal3 this afternoon. It was the greit Reunion of the Blue and the Gray, and it may safely be called the most impressive, the most hearty and the most dignified and inspiring of any of the meetings of survivors of the war that haye occurred siuce Ap po.aatox. The place was ihe Na tional Cemetery, where beueath the sloping green s\yard, shaded t>y mur muring trees and dotted with lines of granite, marked with their names, or marked with the grim "Unknown," so many thousands of the Nation's dead lie in peaceful sleep. The actors were the very men who defended the ridge, on whose slopes the cemetery lies, against the repeat ed and desperate assaults led by the very raen twenty-five years ago this very day, who joined them here now in pledges of friendship, loyalty to a common flag, and unity of devotion to a common couutry. The place, scene, aud the living figures of the men themselves were inspiring. Thousands of spectators, men who wore the blue, men who wore the gray, womeu who toiled and wept at home, children born since the bloody struggle ended, looked on and cheer ed and laughed and wept .by turns. ON CEMETERY IIILL. GETTYSBURG, July 3. Before breakfast this morning about fifty ex- Confederatss of Parker's Battery call ed on their old General, Longstreet, who received them handsomely in an inforrffal way. Tha members of the organization spent some hour 3 in the peach orchard, their command having been the last of Lee's command to leave that ground to join the retreat The Confederates present say that large numbers of their comrades are absent on account of the harvest sea son It is also generally conceded that as a rule the surviving Confed erates were too poor financially to undertake the excursion. When the hour for today's exercis es arrived, there were on the rostrum a number of distinguished persons, most prominent among whom were Generals Longstreet, Sickles, Barlow, Hunt, Gordon and Sbarpe, Gov. Cur tin, ex-Senator Warner Miller, Lieut. Gov. llobinson, of New York, presi ded. After a prayer, he apologized for the absent of the poet, Air. L" -■ throp, who was detained by illness. General Horatio King. Secretary of the Army of the Potomac, read a portion of the poem in an effective manner. Mr. George William Curtis was then introduced and delivered the or ation in his usual eloquent style. Postmasters' Salaries. WASHINGTON, June 29.

The annui 1 meeting of the I*. P. Presbyteriai Missionary Ass eiatioia was field in the White Oak Spring; - church o;i Thursday, Juue2Sth, I' 2 of the congregational societies weir represented, twenty-two delegatis, ' besides many visitors, being present, j Had the weather been favorable a 1 much larger delegation would have ! been in attendance. The pleasant , I church was tastefully dt eorat -d vv to i dowers, and just the kind of a lunch : that hungry delegates enjoy w..s eer | ved by the ladies of tbe Congregation. No pains were by the women ;in connection with the two societies of this church to make the meeting j both pleasant and profitable. The i aduress of welcome, by Miss Blanche Brucemer, was beautiful in sentiment j and expression, and was delivered : with a modesty and grace , ; which won the hearts of ail. Mus i Mamie Frew, ot the Young Ladies' i Society, of Grove City, responded on I ' behalf of the delegates in a most hap- j !py aud fitting address. The report of the Cor. Secretary showed the; j number of societies in the Presbytery ito be 19, with a total membership ot : ;9S. live new societies having been j j organized during the year. The | amount contributed for all purposes j was $ 1,004.03, In addition to this ! a thank offering of S'JO was sent by ! the delegates to the General Mission ary Convention. This was a chief; { feature of the annual meetiug at Washington. $5,540 having b _n con tributed for thi* fund, and more will vet be added. Mrs J. P. Davis,of Par dee, gave an interesting report of the j General Meeting, aud answered ques- j tions on different points as asked by j the delegates. Miss Laura Shoop, of Freeport, read an excellent paper on Mission Bauds, and presented some new ideas gleaned at the iato meeting as well as some practical expedience gained by acting on the suggestions thus received. The subject of special work was then taken up and the Cor. Secretary announced that, the sum of S2OO had been pledged. The parsonage f.ind, in the Home Mission field, and the Dr. Maiia White Medical Hospital, in the fjreign field, were recommend ed as claiming special consideration The claims of the former were pre sented in a letter from Mrs. H. C. Campbell of Allegheny, who is Cor, Secretary of the Home Mission Board Extracts were read from the annual report, setting forth the urgeut need of funds for the Medical Hospital. This work is under the care of Dr. Maria White, who went out from this Presbytery two years ago. Her work ha 3 been rewarded with wonderful success, and she makes an earnest appeal for help in carrying on this work. On motion it decided to appropriate SIOO of the amount to the Los Angeles parsonage fund aud the remaining SIOO, with all that may be added to it, to the Medical Hospital of India. Miss Emma D. Anderson, who has this month returned from In dia, spoke most earnestly of Dr. White's work aud the need of funds to enlarge the hospital aud provide helpers, Miss Anderson who has spent seven years in : India and is a teacher in the girls' school there, made the audres3 ol the evening, which was listened to with the clos est attention. After the address Miss Anderson gave an informal talk ou manners and costumes, cooking uten sils, images, &e. which was highly appreciated by the audience. The next meeting of the association j will be held in llarrisville, aud the following are the officers for the year: President, Mrs. J. A Clark, Prospect: Vice President, Mrs. J. P.

The new ret of Congress is now in full force and effect providing that pensions heretofore or hereafter grant ed to widows of soldiers of the war of the re'ollion shall commence at the da f 3 of the death of their hus bands, This legislation favorably af fects all claims of widows of the late war, which have been filed in the Pension office on or after July 1, 1880, and which have been allowed to commence from the date of the filing of claims, but will not lavora bly affect the cases of such widows as were filed before .July I, 18S0, and have been allowed, pensions having already been granted to those cases ,rom the date of their husband's death. The Commissioner of Pen- j sions gives notice that in settlement under this law of claims already al lowed, no formal application will be required and that the services of at torneys will not be necessary. Widows entitled to pensions under said law need only write a letter giv ing their name, post office address aud certificate number, aud their claims will bo allowed with as little delay as practicable.
